Swaziland Carving by Glenna Walker

Swaziland Carving by

A lady that went on the South Africa missionary trip with my son mailed this beautiful carving to him a few weeks after they returned. She bought it while in Swaziland and my son carried her bag for her on the many trips they took. She gave it to him for carrying her bag for her. He mentioned how much he liked the carving when she bought it and how beautiful if was, so I guess she decided to give it to him. I think it is gorgeous.

I wish I had a better background for it. I took this on my front porch, I love the natural lighting.

    Great Glenna so now you have a map of Africa and I’m sure Jared will tell you where Swazi is, Make sure you keep this oiled stops the wood cracking. A wonderful detailed capture.

  • Hi Kate, when this arrived straight out of the packaging, we did notice a break on the outside. We just thought maybe it happened during the shipment. It’s not that noticeable though, I was able to repair the crack in my photo editing program so it didn’t show up on here. Physically, the crack still exists. What kind of oil is best for polishing? Oh, I did not know this was a map of Africa, LOL. If Jared did, he sure didn’t say so :)

    Hi Glenna I lived by the tail of the Water Buffalo, Any furniture oil is good because Swazi is humid it needs to be kept moist hope that helps

  • Haha, thanks Kate. I’ve got furniture oil too :)
